2026.3.13 Problem with Content Filter + Condition Expression in HTML5 Merged Help
Hi All,
in Robohelp version 2026.3.13, some things seem to be no longer working correctly with Content Filters, Condition Expressions and Merged Help.
I tested with the sample project Compass Travel, output preset "Compass Travel Red Green Skin".
Expectation as defined on Peter's site and as it worked before: active content filter shows either topics that are untagged or have the respective condition tag applied.
1. Display of topics without condition tag
- The topic "Exploring Ancient Maya of Honduras" has no condition tag
- it is stored in the folder "Leisure Travel" which has the tag "leisure" assigned in the TOC
- all topics in the folder "Human Resources" do not have a condition tag and also the folder does not have a condition tag assigned in the TOC
--> with active filter "Corporate", the folder "Leisure Travel" is not displayed and thus also not the topic "Exploring Ancient Maya of Honduras" --> incorrect behavior, the untagged topic should still be displayed.
--> the topic can be found via the search --> correct behavior
--> the folder "Human Resources" including all topics is displayed --> correct behavior
--> with active filter "Leisure", the folder "Leisure Travel" is displayed and also the topic "Exploring Ancient Maya of Honduras" in it (correct)
2. Problem with folder icons in combination with merged help
- to reproduce this problem, I created a parent project. I imported all condition tags and also created the same content filter as in the sample
- the above named problem also exists here
- when a filter is active, the +/- indicator of folders is no longer shown for folders with a tag in the TOC. It is only shown for folders without a tag (i.e. Human Resources).
I am wondering if especially the first issue has something to do with the “switched” and/or meaning of expressions, which was then “corrected” again …?
Best regards
Karin
